Whether you need forgiveness for yourself or someone else,
It is my prayer that this meditation will release your heart from the chains of blame.
Lord God,
We come to you in gratitude with humble hearts knowing that you are the Almighty Healer Lord.
You are the Alpha,
The Omega,
The beginning and the end.
Whether only you can release our hearts from blame and bitterness and hurt,
Only you Lord can release the burdens of our souls.
God,
You have forgiven us with the ultimate sacrifice on the cross and yet we continue to sin against you again and again.
But you never hesitate,
Never,
To forgive us over and over again.
God in Ephesians 4 verse 32 you tell us,
Be kind to one another,
Tender hearted,
Forgiving one another as God in Christ forgave you.
And in Matthew 18 verse 22 you tell us to forgive those who sin against us not once,
But seven times,
Seventy times.
Father,
It is my prayer right now that you would come into our hearts Lord and allow us to adopt the forgiving spirit that you so easily manifest Lord.
God help us to release the blame for whoever it is for we're harboring this blame and this bitterness Lord.
I would ask you to just call this person's name out loud.
Call it out loud if it's a person,
If it's a situation,
If it's yourself.
Call it out loud and just declare in Jesus name that you release this burden.
You release it from your heart and give it fully to God.
That you forgive this person,
That you forgive yourself,
That you would pray blessings over the person who has done wrong against you.
If you begin to pray blessings over the people who sin against you,
It will not only bless them,
But it will bless you tenfold.
Father,
God,
Please give us the heart to fully release this to you and to pray blessings over those who have hurt us.
Thank you Lord for your unconditional love and forgiving spirit.
God,
We know as believers in Christ that we can tap into this forgiveness and love.
We pray right now Lord that you would allow us to do so,
That you would allow us to take these burdens and lay them at your feet,
The same feet that hung on the cross for us.
Father God,
We know you want us to be free of our burdens.
We know that you want us to forgive ourselves and to forgive others.
Please help us to do that Lord right here,
Right now,
In this moment.
We pray these things in Jesus name.
Amen.
It is my personal belief that forgiveness is really the starting point for letting your soul be free in Christ.
Especially if you're harboring blame and bitterness against yourself,
I urge you to just repeat this prayer every morning until you feel the release of blame or bitterness or hurt or whatever the emotion is attached to it.
The more that you pray this prayer of forgiveness and release,
The more you'll feel the burden of your soul's lift.
My prayer for you today is that you leave this meditation feeling a little bit lighter than you did when you came into it.
Thank you for joining me.
May God bless you and keep you.
